Applause to DR.

I will miss the good doctor like a junkie misses his pusher. Exactly like that.

Was it more than an urban myth that Dr Sprock single-handedly put
the first hole in the ozone layer?

He was eaten by a wolf. In California. The getaway vehicle was Tami's car.

geeze, I thought this was some Sprock spray and spew about how he crushed on sandstone...

...learn to find out that not only did he die accidently watching Doug trying to pee but lived to hear about it too... I'm so confused...

And DR, Breedlove has a rule that us old guys can't go on about our geriatric infirmities in public... stiff upper lip and all that... I never imagined that peeing could be so difficult! I mean, you just point and shoot when you're young, nowadays you point for ever, and when it goes off, you have to make sure you're unloaded before you zip the thing back in your pants...

This is about the point where people stop posting condolences and become obsessed with the details of your fatal accident, followed by increasingly critical posts about how your own stupidity killed you.

"oh why don't you go make me a stained glass coffin?"

I have and could. Well... it was actually a decorative box for some dead person's ashes.. I've done them for pets too. You wanna pick out the design now or would you like a grieving family member to do it for you later?

I admired his skill on the rock.

He was a great person.

and if it wasn't for the false claim of death, he would have been admired for how he lived.

cheers sprock
